Sanders tweeted the video of Acosta pushing intern's arm away during a press conference as she tried to take the microphone from him, after the White House revoked his hard pass for "placing his hands on" her.

"As a woman who has had people put their hands on me, thinking they have a right to get in my personal space," Conway said. "I don’t like him pulling that mic back and doing on her arm, it looked like a karate chop almost."

"I didn't put my hands on her or touch her as they're alleging," Acosta said after the incident. "I think I handled myself professionally."
